Abstract

Digital repositories are the main practice of Information Science. In simply manner digital repositories refers to the Archive holds digital content, information or object. Digital repositories to some extend related with Information Systems and Networks (ISN) but the main differences in between two are Digital Depositories are the internal form where as ISN are opposite of that.
